Six Haitian Children Found Safe, Enrolled in School in Chilean Town

Six Haitian children, who were part of a group reported missing, have been successfully located and integrated into the community of Graneros, Chile. Municipal authorities confirmed that the children are now enrolled in school and have been reunited with their families, bringing a sense of relief after a period of uncertainty.

The successful outcome follows an intensive search operation coordinated by Graneros' municipal teams. The effort was initiated after national authorities alerted the local administration about the potential presence of nine Haitian minors in the area. The search was spearheaded by the Directorate of Community Development (Dideco) and the Local Office of Childhood (OLN), employing a thorough ground-level investigation.

Graneros Mayor Marcelo Miñañir provided an update on Friday, stating, "Today we can inform the community that we have already identified six children." He emphasized that the children are not only safe but also actively participating in the local education system and are settled with their families. This development marks a positive resolution to a national alert concerning the disappearance of minors.
